Strange. I tried to download them again. Firefox says "The image file
"file://...../emacs/etc/images/icons/emacs_16.png" cannot be displayed
because it contains errors". Could it be cvsnt that is broken? (I do not
suggest so because I do not at all know the details here. I just ask.)
BTW when trying to open the icon file within Emacs instead I get two
different errors depending on how I do this. If I use C-x C-f
(find-file) I get the error "Cannot determine image type". If I open the
file from dired it is opened but displayed as text in a buffer where the
command line says "(image)". (But for Emacs it might be some of my
patches for w32 that might be stopping some updates. I have to look
throught these again.)

Can you then please tell me where these are?

I think I wrote long before that those sizes most of the time does not
work very well for 16x16.

The current emacs.ico file contains only a 16-color icon 32x32 pixels. I
do not think it looks very nice either when viewed as 32x32 or 16x16. I
do not think it would be a good idea to use only a 16-color icon for
Andrews pictures. I am however not sure if should try to make a 16-color
version too (and I doubt it can be made good looking). I do not remember
when it is used.
